I agree with what Mr. Green says. it all depends on the person, someone can take .5mg and it does wonders and works a long time..for others it lasts only the 4 hrs. Just depends on how bad your anxiety really is. I only take 3 a day as prescribed and It works for me. no anxiety nor panic..I function just fine!
Most times it is dosed out three times a day. To cover morning, noon and night. You are talking 6 to 8 hours. That's max. Depends on how bad your anxiety is.
